⚠ Permit Applications – Important Update – 31/03/2026 ⚠
In light of ongoing litigation relevant to the circumstances in which the BIOT Administration may issue permits for people to enter BIOT (except for permits to enter Diego Garcia necessary for the operation of the military facility or those on official BIOTA business) we have as of 31 March 2026, paused substantive consideration of new applications for permits to enter the Territory whilst the BIOT Administration considers its position. We will update this notice as soon as there are any developments.

There are no visa requirements for BIOT. Those visiting the Territory must have prior approval. Visiting yachts to the Outer Islands require a permit before arrival. Further details can be found under the side menu.
